Hi, I am also facing a similar issue.
The messages are not expiring as expected and they are consumed again by the subscribers if we bring them down and restart again. We are setting the expiration TTL on client side and setting the message expiration age too. Also in the durable subscriber we are doing an ack and commiting the message and subscriber. Still the message does not expire and when we restart the consumers, they are redelivered again. Has this been fixed or is there any other configuration we need to do.
